Recently, BNB's performance has been quite aggressive—starting from over 900 dollars at dawn yesterday, it has pushed past the 950-dollar mark, with a 24-hour increase of over 5%, and even touched above 952 at its peak. This momentum doesn't look like a post-New Year lull; it more resembles the beginning of a bull market just warming up.

Speaking of which, this wave of BNB's rise isn't without foundation. Let's look at the burn mechanism first. The automatic burn scheduled for Q1 2026 will directly remove 1.365M to 1.374M BNB, equivalent to over $1.22 billion RMB! That's about 1% of the total circulating supply. This isn't a small move—combining the BEP-95 real-time gas fee burns with quarterly auto-burns, nearly 30% of the original supply has already been burned.

The goal is clear: a cap of 100 million tokens. The more burned, the scarcer it becomes. This fundamental supply logic remains effective in 2026, and its impact will only be stronger.

On the technical side, there are also major updates. The Fermi upgrade officially went live on January 14, increasing BNB Chain's speed by 40%. Block generation has become faster, which is a qualitative improvement for high-frequency scenarios like DeFi, GameFi, AI Agents, memes, and RWA. Faster transactions mean lower fees, improved user experience, and continued growth in on-chain activity, resulting in more gas fees being burned—a super positive feedback loop.

This is no longer just a promise in the white paper; the results will be seen soon.

Damn, BNB is really aggressive this time, destroying 30% of the supply and adding the Fermi upgrade—this is about to take off. This rhythm of BNB just feels right; $950 is just the beginning, I have a feeling. 951 is not the peak, keep burning—after all, the scarcer it gets, the more valuable it is. After the Fermi upgrade, gas fees dropped directly, and with the chain speed up, DeFi players are going to be thrilled. 1.22 billion in burns—impressive, this is true supply-side reform. A cap of 100 million tokens is a done deal; it will be clear in less than two years.

BNB's recent rally really can't be contained anymore, with dual buffs from burn + technical upgrades, no wonder it's pushing upward. Burning 1% of circulation is a solid deflationary logic, this is the hardcore reason supporting the price. Fermi upgrade with a 40% speed increase? On-chain activity is picking up, gas fees and burns are soaring, the positive cycle is well established. The 952 threshold has been broken, and this is just the beginning, right? Wait, can the cap of 100 million tokens really be maintained, or will the rules need to be changed again?

Wow, BNB is really on fire this time. Dual burn and upgrade combo—no such treatment for air coins. Burning tokens into scarcity—this is the real textbook of deflation. The market will vote. After Fermi launched, chain speed increased by 40%, and the experience in DeFi scenarios suddenly improved. Lower gas fees make everyone love to use it. $1.2 billion in burn volume sounds outrageous, no wonder it's so fierce. It broke 950, I’ve never seen such a fierce start. Feels like this isn’t just hype; the data is right here. The fire has a real cause. How far is it from 950 to 1000? Let me see if I have the guts to go all in. The timing of Fermi’s upgrade was perfect—building positive momentum for the bull market. I’m convinced by this positive feedback loop: burn tokens—more users—more gas—burn even more fiercely—more scarcity. The promises on paper are becoming reality. By 2026, BNB might really look down on its current price.

ngl the burn mechanics hitting different in 2026... 30% of og supply already torched? that's not narrative, that's actual deflationary pressure. fermi upgrade + gas fee destruction loop = inevitable scarcity play.

Burn 30% of the supply? Damn, that number sounds outrageous, BNB is really getting things done. Fermi's 40% speed upgrade, I feel like that's a bit exaggerated. Let's wait until I actually try it. Breaking 950 yuan, my stop-loss point from last year. Now I regret it to death, haha. A dual approach of burning coins to accelerate, this is the real deflationary logic, much more reliable than those mouthy projects. But don't get too excited too early; a bull market warm-up and actual takeoff are two different things. This positive cycle sounds beautiful, but I'm just worried it might turn around when the time comes.
